Meetings and Events
During the final days of the Second World War, an RCAF crew of six young Canadians sets out on a routine mission, dropping food and supplies for isolated Burmese villages. Their Dakota cargo plane takes off over the jungle--and vanishes without a trace. Forty-five years later, a Burmese hunter finds what's left of the wreckage on a hillside, starting a chain of events which led to the recovery of the Canadians' remains.
The volunteer crew was made up of six men from across the country: pilot William Bennet Rogers, co-pilot William Joseph Kyle, wireless operator Charles Peter McLaren, navigator David McLean Cameron, wireless operator Stanley James Cox, and cargo handler Cornelius John Kopp. Their average age was 22. Lost over Burma: Search for Closure weaves together their lives and wartime experiences--through the memories of colleagues and families--with scenes of the dramatic 1996 mission into the Burmese jungle to recover their remains and the emotion-laden funeral near Rangoon, where they have finally been laid to rest with full military honours.

Nasagiweya (Nassagaweya) Historical Society continues to preserve the history of the former Nassagaweya Township which is now considered rural Town of Milton.
We have gathered so much material we now have our archives housed at the Nassagaweya Tennis Centre and Community Hall at Guelph Line and Campbellville Sideroad. We are planning on opening to the public one day a month on a weekend in the very near future. We are always looking for new members and also will welcome any youth that is interested in their local history, we would be happy to give volunteer hours.
To help with this process we have annual fundraisers. This year we are having an Autumn Afternoon Tea on Saturday October 21st, from 2-4 p.m. We are holding this event at Ebenezer United Church, 12274 Guelph Line, Campbellville. Hoping this will be a lovely day to drive to north rural Milton to enjoy the autumn scenery. The cost is $25 per person (special rate for groups of 8 and more purchased in advance). Not only Tea, sandwiches and sweets to enjoy, but also Dan Kranstz, an illusionist, will walk around and visit each table. Yes there is a door prize or two. Special hats are also welcome. Also Raffle Tickets will be sold for Draws on a variety of Gift Baskets. Our Local History Books will also be available for purchase.
Please pass this on to friends, family, neighbours that are new or old to the community and may not have heard of us.
Looking forward to your support

Nasagiweya (Nassagaweya) Historical Society continues to preserve the history of the former Nassagaweya Township which is now considered rural Town of Milton.
We have gathered so much material we now have our archives housed at the Nassagaweya Tennis Centre and Community Hall at Guelph Line and Campbellville Sideroad. We are planning on opening to the public one day a month on a weekend in the very near future. We are always looking for new members and also will welcome any youth that is interested in their local history, we would be happy to give volunteer hours.
To help with this process we have annual fundraisers. This year we are having an Autumn Afternoon Tea on Saturday October 21st, from 2-4 p.m. We are holding this event at Ebenezer United Church, 12274 Guelph Line, Campbellville. Hoping this will be a lovely day to drive to north rural Milton to enjoy the autumn scenery. The cost is $25 per person (special rate for groups of 8 and more purchased in advance). Not only Tea, sandwiches and sweets to enjoy, but also Dan Kranstz, an illusionist, will walk around and visit each table. Yes there is a door prize or two. Special hats are also welcome. Also Raffle Tickets will be sold for Draws on a variety of Gift Baskets. Our Local History Books will also be available for purchase.
Please pass this on to friends, family, neighbours that are new or old to the community and may not have heard of us.
Looking forward to your support
